You keep the Event Horizon reveal till the final shot, pan out to reveal the name on the side of the ship. Cuz if we're hitting pure fanservice to the exception of everything else, we're doing it properly.

Does a facehugger laying eggs in someone’s chest count as sex concerning Jason’s need to murder.

One of my favorite things in cheap horror movies : a character sharpening a knife or axe with a whetstone where it’s very clear that no one involved knew how that worked. Bonus points if they don’t get a whetstone and it’s just a random rock.

I figure since I'm already going to watch Humane and Infinity Pool this week I may as well go for the hat trick and get David in the mix too. If I were to watch one David Cronenberg feature which should it be? Can't be Shivers cuz I already watched that one somewhat recently.

Everyone will say The Fly, so I will say Crash.

The correct answer is The Fly though.

It should be The Fly but I haven't been able to stop thinking about Videodrome since I first watched it. It was uniquely tuned to my wavelength. Loved it.

Have you seen his remake of The Fly already?

Fake edit: Beaten, so I will instead say go for The Dead Zone, my perennial second fave Cronenberg film. Barring that, I'd also go to bat for any of Videodrome, The Brood or Cosmopolis.

I've seen The Fly, Videodrome, and eXistenZ. But not in a long time. So they'd be worth a rewatch if they're really up there. I'm looking at my meeting schedule and maybe I can squeeze in four movies this week? It sounds like The Fly is the way to go, but I'm going to keep soliciting ideas and see if I can land something extra.

Scanners is a classic, a messy film as most of Cronenberg's are, but wow do I love how it looks. And I'm also seconding Crash - a haunting and dark piece of work.

My favorite 21st century Cronenberg is Cosmopolis no contest, it's also probably in my top three, has Paul Giamatti's greatest performance, but it is very novelistic and it can turn off a motherfucker too lame to dig it (they exist).

So id say eXistenZ or Crash or Videodrome to really get in that grody Cronenberg sweetspot.

EDIT: well I guess you've seen 2/3, so Crash or Cosmopolis imo

I want cronenberg to take more acting roles. I even watched that Christopher Lambert Seven knock-off Resurrection to get some of that fix.

Nightbreed was probably his best role so far that I’ve seen.

Cronenberg's got a fun role in the fourth season of Slasher.

It's a fun season that leans more and more into dark comedy as it goes along. Killer final episode.
